Re: SOTD ~ Wednesday October 13th 2010

Hello everyone Had a rather interesting and challenging day at work today. Was asked by my "mentor" to call a psychiatric clinic in FRANCE and get hold of a doctor. At least the patient that it was about gave me some idea about which doctor that spoke at least a bit of english. Very proud of myself that I managed to make myself understood on first french and then a mix of both. But I was really NERVOUS! After that I also had to have two appointments with some patients alone because my "mentor" got ill. So proud of myself for actually surving the day without huge mistakes Sotd is Feminite du bois.

Congratulations on your professional successes, ineespenes! I love hearing your excitement as you embark on your career life!

I just bought the solid of Pacifica's new fragrance, Indian Coconut Nectar. The packaging is adorable. The fragrance is very subtle after the mega-coconut burst at the beginning. We'll see how it works for water aerobics. :-)

Siifter - lol, thanks for the compliment! You smell gorgeous too, you know. Apparently, my ballet instructor shares our love of Chanel. She mentioned my fragrance for the second time this morning and said that although she normally discourages the use of fragrance in her classes, she'll make an exception for me as long as I keep wearing Chanel (the other time she complimented me was for No.22, so I think I'll be able to adhere to her rules!)

Science is not only compatible with spirituality, it is a profound source of spirituality. When we recognize our place in an immensity of light-years and in the passage of ages, when we grasp the intricacy, beauty, and subtlety of life, then that soaring feeling, that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely spiritual...Carl Sagan

Haven't decided on what I'll wear today. I will also need to pack some things to wear for a trip -- maybe some samples to test and something very comforting and uplifting for a workshop I will be giving. So I am scentless yet, but not for long.

Mitsuoko today, all day.

Long day.

And we had a rare earthquake (rare for OK) this morning, 9:06 am... magnitude 5.1! (they measured it at 4.5 minutes after it happened, but the OGS upgraded it to 5.1 later.) It was very short, but a sharp noisy shock that shook the building, my desk, and our nerves for just a few seconds. First one I've felt while awake, even though I lived in Seattle area for a number of years. My office building is about 2.5 miles from the epicenter, and a coworker who has a house very near the epicenter said his wife was in the shower when the quake happened and she watched the tiles cracking! (no damage here at home or at work, and no injuries reported except for a fellow who fell off his ladder when the quake hit, and broke his ankle.) Pretty exciting thing for a "hump day" otherwise busy but tedious morning.
